MONTICELLO — A shooting at the Sonic Drive-In on F.E. Sellers Drive in Monticello left one person injured and prompted an emergency response, officials said. One person was transported to a hospital, authorities said.
Witnesses at the scene identified the location as the Sonic Drive-In. Sonic is a national fast-food chain known for its drive-in service and late-night crowds, and incidents at such public businesses can quickly draw community attention.
Officials did not immediately release details such as a suspect description, motive or the condition of the injured person, and said the case remains under investigation. Local law enforcement is handling the inquiry, and investigators were at the scene following the reported shooting, witnesses said.
